Abstract

Final-year university students often face academic and non-academic challenges—such as poor time management, ineffective supervision, psychological pressure, and limited methodological competence—that may delay thesis completion. This study aimed to examine the relationship and predictive contribution of final-year students’ problems to the thesis writing process. A quantitative correlational design was employed. The sample consisted of 40 final-year students selected through purposive sampling, with inclusion criteria of being actively supervised and having completed at least Chapter 1. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed with IBM SPSS version 25 through the Kolmogorov–Smirnov normality test, Pearson correlation, and simple linear regression. The results indicated that the data were normally distributed (Sig = 0.200). Pearson correlation revealed a significant positive association between student problems and the thesis writing process (r = 0.458, p = 0.003), suggesting that higher levels of problems are linked to greater hindrance in thesis progress. Regression analysis further showed that student problems accounted for 21.0% of the variance in the thesis writing process (R² = 0.210). These findings confirm that final-year students’ problems are significantly related to and meaningfully predict barriers in thesis writing, highlighting the importance of strengthening time-management support, improving supervision quality, expanding methodological training, and providing psychological assistance to promote timely and effective thesis completion.

Abstract

SPNF SKB Kota Medan sebagai lembaga pendidikan nonformal memiliki peran strategis dalam pemberdayaan masyarakat melalui program kesetaraan dan keterampilan. Namun, penelitian ini menemukan permasalahan mendasar terkait tutor yang tidak sesuai dengan latar belakang pendidikan, sehingga berdampak pada efektivitas pembelajaran dan kualitas lulusan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tutor belum optimal dalam melaksanakan peran fasilitator, ditandai dengan metode pembelajaran yang monoton, kurangnya pemahaman terhadap kebutuhan warga belajar, serta keterbatasan sarana prasarana. Faktor utama penyebabnya adalah keterbatasan SDM berkualifikasi, minimnya pelatihan berkelanjutan, dan lemahnya sistem manajemen lembaga. Kesimpulan penelitian menegaskan perlunya strategi rekrutmen berbasis kompetensi, pelatihan berkelanjutan, penguatan manajemen, serta peningkatan literasi digital agar kualitas pembelajaran di SKB Kota Medan dapat lebih efektif dan relevan.
